Yes, for my UOB also has that.
If I recall my Maybank's Poslaju also has that mail drop thingy.

yup i think it has that mail drop thingy also, because I received my mbb debit card that way too
was surprised earlier that it was sent by pos laju but was just left in my mail box without signature of acknowledgement

IMO, mail drop is way way better than "normal" Pos Laju where they don't even bother coming to my condo and just leave at collection centre. And anyway, it is still quite secure because there is a tracking number on the package.

Then my memory is not wrong.

Yes, I also prefer this way. Nobody can use the card without verification. The Poslaju in my hometown is too responsible that they don't do mail drop and left a slip to collect from nearest Poslaju. I called and told them to just mail drop it because I really didn't have the time to visit them during working hours as I'm not in my hometown. They were worried someone will use my CC, I ensure them nothing will happen. Then, next day they dropped for me.

I get my debit card by Poslaju mail drop but credit card doesn't seem like they will do mail drop.

Last week they send my new credit card but no one at home and i've to collect from poslaju. Now Poslaju even have the biometric to verify for collection of credit card..

So far all my credit cards received via Poslaju require nothing from me. Just a normal signature if someone is at home or I will get my family member to happily collect it from the mail box.

Good for you.

They don't even bother to call me when they reach my house. They will just leave the note there to ask me to go collect from them.

I have so many cards sent to my hometown address until I know the guys working in Poslaju in my hometown. Every time I call, they will remember and tell me next time whenever they see my credit card, they will just mail drop regardless the instruction from banks.

I told them, that's more than appreciated by me since my aunt goes to our house every evening to check out our house.

Wow - which Pos Laju did you go to? I collected my SCB CC from Pos Laju Brickfields last week (arrived at 9.50pm, they close at 10.00pm... totally empty lol), but they didn't even really look at my IC and just asked me to write name, sign and write IC number.

At least yours left a note! I'm super sure that mine don't even bother coming, because my guards tell me so, and I've never seen a Pos Laju note in my life.

me, too.

I just got my MBB debit card in my mailbox 2 days ago. Not sent to door, but dropped into mailbox.

looks like more and more banks gonna practice this in future.. even the cards get stolen or missing by postman without activation cards basically are useless

if you go to poslaju office, there is some sticker or paper announcement there, basically, something like a procedure to ask for IC, i am not sure for which bank, it is something like that

for SCB, firrst time, poslaju didn't even bother to come, no sorry note, then second time (another card), they just maildrop

same for Maybank, i think they now do maildrop as well

I just receive SMS saying that my pin card with poslaju.. But I didn't receive sorry notes also.. Need to go to collect it at poslaju again

dun need, if you hv the tracking number (or call cs to find out), just ask poslaju to deliver again

Ok, mean I need to call cs to get tracking number..

My replacement card last time was sent by signature one. My sis one is the same as well. Not sure by batches or what.

About poslaju mail dropping our cards, just a thought

There are still some online merchants not requiring CVV code during checkout, just key in CC and expiry mm/yy

If someone steals the package they will know our CC numbers and a rough idea of expiry date. Example, mine expires on 05/17 and my replacement cards expire on 05/20. So if they correctly guess your existing card's expiry date they could, in theory, make fraudulent transactions.

Although In the end, it could be more of a nuisance than trouble, since we hv the liability protection thingy for fraud purchases.

without activation, how would above incident happens?

Our replacement card CC number same as existing one. At least for mine it is.

But cvv code is different
